@planet506 No. They wear yellow shirts to show their support for the king. Yellow is the royal color. The coup was backed by the king. The yellow shirts are made up of the educated and business class that want greater control in parliament since they produce the majority of the income.

@Quasifonix yellow shirts represent the 2006 coup and military backed government supporter. :P

The red shirts are the pro socialists. Under ousted prime minister, Thaksin Shinnawatra, the poor had a massive rise in their standard of living because the socialist policies of his party. Now the working class have are pushing back against the yellow shirts, who represent the educated elite and capitalists that ousted Thaksin.
